We just had them processed out there and then packed them in the coolers for the 1 day trip back home. Together we have brought back a dozen or more elk and mule deer from Colorado on a 3 day truck trip. Rob has a place out there and a freezer so we do all of our own processing now.
Yup, those Newfie hunts were a lot of fun with CI. I am headed back this year with my daughter for moose. Will be fun to get back on the island after 14 years. No issues bring meat back from CO or NF if done properly.
